Description
Clematis x durandii is strikingly individual! The non clinging stems bear solitary indigo-blue flowers with golden yellow anthers from June to September. Each bloom has 4 - 6 narrow, slightly twisted and deeply furrowed sepals which give this cultivar its distinctive appearance. Unlike many varieties, Clematis x durandii does not climb, but will happily meander among borders, poking stems up between other plants. These stems can be easily staked for a particularly attractive effect. Alternatively, this versatile Clematis could be tied onto an obelisk or trellis. A resilient and easy to grow variety, which holds an RHS AGM for its superb garden performance. Height: 2m (6'). Spread: 1m (3') Pruning group: 3.

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

How to Grow
When planting clematis, choose a position in sun or semi-shade and plant the climber deeply in moist, fertile, well drained soil. Position the top of the rootball at a depth of 7.5cm (3") below soil level, to encourage new shoots to form from the base of the plant. Clematis dislike soils that are particularly wet or dry. Such soils can be improved by the addition of plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost. When growing clematis in patio containers use a soil based compost such as John Innes No.3. Train clematis plants onto a suitable support such as trellis, wires or a freestanding climbing frame.
More Info
Feed and water frequently throughout the growing season. This variety of clematis flowers in late summer on the current year’s growth. Pruning should be undertaken in spring before active growth begins. When pruning group 3 Clematis, cut back all of the previous year’s stems to a pair of healthy buds at around 20cm (8") above ground level. In spring, apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost to the base of the plant in order to protect the roots and conserve soil moisture.
